Gas Burner THipelspful Tips Gas Range Sounds A single pop will be heard each time the gas valve cycles on and off. Clicking will also be heard during normal bake cycles as the igniter cycles on to maintain the oven temperature. A whooshing or poof sound will be heard when the bake or broil burners ignite. This is normal. Cooktop Burner Ignition All igniters will click and spark when the knob is in the LITE position and the burner is being lit. This is normal. The clicking will stop when the knob is moved from the LITE position. Cooktop Burners Not Lighting A Ensure burner caps are fully seated on the burner base. Burner caps must be placed on the proper-sized burner or burner will not B C light. Burner caps should be level when installed properly. Burner caps should be clean for ignition and an even flame.

Igniter Griddle (on some models) The griddle has a unique, nonstick cooking surface. Place griddle on the right side of the cooktop, positioning the griddle into the grates as illustrated. For best performance, set the front burner to the lowest heat setting and the rear burner to Medium-High heat. Oven Odor There may be some odors the first few times you use your range. This will go away after the oven is used a few times. To eliminate these odors, it is recommended that you run the Bake cycle at 400°F (204°C) for 30 minutes prior to cooking for the first time. Oven Preheat Time The standard time necessary to preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C) is 10 to 15 minutes. Factors that have an impact on preheat times are: room temperature, starting oven temperature, and the number of oven racks. Unused oven racks can be removed prior to preheating your oven to reduce the preheat time. AquaLift™ Technology Cleaning Some condensation will form on the oven window during the cleaning cycle.
